内容简介
Based on the life of Paul Gauguin,
The Moon and Sixpence is W. Somerset Maugham's ode to the powerful forces behind creative genius.
Charles Strickland is a staid banker, a man of wealth and privilege.??He is also a man possessed of an unquenchable desire to create art.??As Strickland pursues his artistic vision, he leaves London for Paris and Tahiti, and in his quest makes sacrifices that leaves the lives of those closest to him in tatters.??Through Maugham's sympathetic eye Stricland's tortured and cruel soul becomes a symbol of the blessing and the curse of transcendent artistic genius, and the cost in humans lives it sometimes demands.
作者简介
W. Somerset Maugham lived in France and England.??He died in 1965.

稍微打开一看,英文原版还是有点难度。外国书还是一致的缺点,纸张非常差。钢笔写个字基本就透过去了。
